Sign up here!We are excited to be raising $2,700 to purchase a cooling system for Lightner Farm! They will be creating an innovative walk-in cooler with the purchase of a Coolbot, AC unit. It will save the farm $11 per day by running the Coolbot instead of the original cooling unit. We are excited to fund this project for one of our earliest and longest running producers, Lightner Farm, located in the River Valley.

We have been working with them for almost a decade now to coordinate different projects, cooking classes and community events. We donate 300lbs of organic chicken feed every month for their chickens, and we could not be happier to watch these beautiful birds grow and live happy and healthy lives on the farm. There’s so many ways to volunteer with Tri Cycle, so check out their website below for more info on how to get involved!

This has been in the works for quite some time now, and we are proud to say that over 50% of our kitchen packaging and all of our taproom packaging is commercially compostable! We are the first grocery store in NWA to begin a comprehensive food waste/compostable products and recycling program for the back AND front of house!
RED Co-Op labels on our kitchen items indicate it can be composted.
BLACK Co-Op labels on our kitchen items need to be disposed of in the trash.
The Co-Op is so much more than just a store. It's a community of like-minded people coming together to share really good food. Join us at our next event.
